Remove from me this rapier blade with which thou hath pierced my heart. Let me enjoy, once again, exquisite pain and revel in my own agony. Withdraw, slowly, so my life’s blood will run down the cold, sharp blade and drip to the ground. Mayhap in a rose garden that it should not be wasted as were my dreams. Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Oh, my goodness....this is somewhat gothic. My, my, it is a bit dark but vivid. I think I will be reading this one again... 'Fiction is the truth inside the lie.' ~Stephen King |

"Mayhap in a rose garden that it should not be wasted as were my dreams." Interloper - I liked this one very much. Definitely could feel the sadness and the regret in every word. Dave |
